Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Schizophrenia is a severe, chronic, disabling mental disorder known to mankind throughout its history. The influence of various exogenous factors complicating the course of schizophrenia, one of which is the use of psychoactive substances, is of great importance. Patients with schizophrenia with pathomorphosis of clinical picture of disease in connection with their use of new psychoactive substances (NPS) represent a separate problem. The textbook describes the historical and current theoretical concepts of comorbidity in these nosologies. This textbook is based on the results of a study that analyzed the impact of NPSAs on the clinical and dynamic features of different stages of schizophrenia. The general signs and tendencies of course of disease are revealed, which analysis allowed to develop an algorithm of selection of adequate therapy and effective measures of secondary prevention.The guidelines are intended for practicing psychiatrists and narcologists, as well as for use in the curricula of medical universities and postgraduate medical education.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 96 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Conducting excavations in the rock massif and the impact of blasting on it leads to differentiation of the massif into zones of different geomechanical and gasdynamic state. Identification of patterns of formation and distribution of zones of different degrees of disintegration is of great importance to ensure the safety of mining operations and gas extraction from the coal massif. Analytical studies carried out by the author have allowed to determine the algorithm of interdependence of sizes of zones of geomechanical and gasdynamic state in the mountain massif, disturbed by mining works. These zones are elements of a single thermodynamic system - the mountain massif. Spatial relationships underlying the system organization of rocks - the most important of those that create its real relevance, structural design, determine the sequence of changes in the state of this system. The carried out researches have shown that the structure of rock system at technogenic influence on it obeys the clear mathematical law, independent of a way of influence on it. The book is intended for students, engineers and scientists of mining specialties.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The first chapter of this book discusses the general characteristics of scientific and technological foresight for military purposes. This is preceded by a clarification of the concepts of 'scientific foresight' and 'prediction' to clarify the difference between them. This is due to the fact that these concepts are often confused in the scientific literature. This chapter analyses the components of foresight: methodology; information basis of foresight; organisational structure of foresight. The second chapter of the study offers the methodology developed by the author for determining the effectiveness of scientific and technological forecasting on the basis of introduction and use of inegral characteristics for obtaining a generalized criterion of information effectiveness of forecasting. The methodology deals only with assessment of information effectiveness of forecasting, assuming that information effectiveness of forecasting can be determined by the value of forecasting information about future state and properties of an object of any nature for making a right decision at present.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Theprocess of regeneration of filtering fibrous materials,providing preservation of the basic filtering characteristics andthe possibility of their reuse for fine air purification,is developed.Inthe latter case, the material, subjected to additional exposure tothe factors of the 'melt-lowing' process, acquires a number of properties, contributingto an increase in the filtering capacity for fine air purification.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The booklet explores Russia's influence on international politics on the basis of systemic and historical approaches and answers the question of why a country with a resource economy is one of the leading states in international politics. The brochure begins by defining Russia as a special actor and phenomenon in world politics and highlights its characteristics as a special actor in international politics. Then it shows how it qualitatively changed the world politics in the course of the twentieth century, the historical contradictions of Russian modernization are outlined. As a result of a system that includes the export of strategic raw materials, the activation of human capital, the policy of strengthening the international importance of Russia, the creation, production and use of high-tech and conventional weapons, Russia has become a special actor in world politics. Russia's possession of nuclear weapons, its vast territory and population, its patriotism, and its political system form the necessary conditions for the functioning of this system.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The information sphere is of key importance for the modern individual, society and state and has a comprehensive impact on the ongoing economic, political and social processes in the countries and regions At present, the information sphere in the Republic of Belarus is characterized by a high level of access to mass information for the population of the country. In the coming decades, all sectors, markets and spheres of life of the state should be reoriented to the new digital models. Thus, the role of news journalism is increasing, since it is news that is the most operative means of transmitting data. In this regard, the presence of this genre in the media is increasing. Consequently, the filling of print, audiovisual and electronic resources with news items is expanding, leading to a lack of filtering of messages both in the newsfeed and in the subconscious of the audience.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The exchange of this day revolves around the theme 'appreciation of the keeping of accounts in a company'. The choice of this theme as well as the invited audience were motivated by the fact that for some time now, students and researchers of the SAI Butembo have been used to dealing with this theme in the framework of their dissertations and end-of-study works; but the way in which the theme in question is approached by each of these researchers shows that it is not often well understood.The objective of this exchange is to share our point of view on the understanding of this theme by showing step by step the elements of the accounting process that are likely to be evaluated in order to validly pronounce on the good or bad keeping of the accounts in a company.To achieve this, we will successively address:1. The phases of the accounting process;2. Tasks and tools to be used for bookkeeping;3. Systems of bookkeeping;4. Bookkeeping requirements; 5;5. The six objectives of accounting;6.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The present work has focused on the principle of non-intervention in the affairs of a State: the case of elections in Africa in the face of the positions taken by the international community. Indeed, our problematic consisted in knowing if international law through the channel of the international community is capable of imposing itself in the traditional sphere of the domains of competence of a State or the sovereign affairs of a State to apply in all independence and in all sovereignty the norms relating to human rights, in particular the elections on its territory. Thus, we asked ourselves two questions: should any position taken by the international community in relation to the organization and proclamation of elections in Africa always be considered as violating the principle of non-intervention To what extent can the international community's stance on elections in Africa be considered lawful Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The decentralized production of electrical energy is currently undergoing a very important change. Several renewable energy sources, such as wind (wind turbines), solar (thermal or photovoltaic), are increasingly used to produce electrical energy locally. Due to meteorological intermittency, energy management is one of the major challenges. In this paper, we present the design of an electronic module for the optimal control and management of the production of a hybrid energy system (PV-battery-grid) while ensuring the efficient and intelligent management of electrical energy in the system. This dissertation is composed of three chapters, the first of which is a study on hybrid systems, the second studies the management strategies used in these systems and finally the third chapter has allowed to make the simulation under the Proteus software and the design of the automatic switchBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The Sahelo-Saharan space is like a sick person with several doctors at his bedside, each of whom is trying to diagnose him according to his strategic interests. Several doctors, one patient whose condition is only getting worse. It is time to change the paradigm. The Sahelo-Saharan space, which is plagued by various sources of insecurity, needs a global and coordinated response in the fight against jihadist terrorism and organized crime. The segmented responses that states are trying to provide today are not effective in combating these threats. In order to better combat the phenomenon, it is necessary to consider it as a whole that cannot be dissociated from its other parts, namely organized crime and trafficking of all kinds. A growing interdependence has been created between terrorist groups and drug traffickers. Money being the sinews of war, these groups are increasingly turning to trafficking of all kinds to finance their actions and maintain their troops. However, the States of the region are sorely lacking in financial resources to support the range of response mechanisms against this threatBooks on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -One of the 'seven sins' of development is development without participation: sustained development ultimately depends on strengthening people's ability to improve their lives and take control of their own destiny (UNICEF, World Health of Children, 1989). In 1978, at the International Conference on Primary Health Care in Alma Ata, the importance of decentralization of health care and the development of citizen participation was emphasized. The Ottawa Charter (1986) called for strengthening community action in transforming their health status.The Edinburgh Medical Education Summit in August 1993 called for giving communities an active role in decision-making in the health sector.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The history of peoples is based on traditions that are at the same time similar and different. In the case of bullfighting in Spain and female circumcision in the Ivory Coast, the protocol procedures, the use of blunt objects and the existence of a victim and an executioner establish the link. However, if the purely entertaining and professional characters give bullfighting its singularity, the initiatory particularity and the dependence on tradition are specific to excision. Clearly, bullfighting embodies openness to modernity, while female circumcision maintains tradition by closing itself off to any modern trend.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The indifference, often the complicit silence and the impotence of the so-called International Community in the face of massacres, past and present, have convinced the Jews that if Armageddon falls upon them, no one will lift a finger to prevent it or to protect them. With our S.O.S. inspired by the urgencies of the moment and avoiding the language of wood, we invited all men to do the same, to wake up to become aware of what brings them together and unites them, and not to endanger the planet that shelters and nourishes them. The divine spark, that God, Good, Merciful and Generous, has breathed into man, and because he has proposed and accepted it, to realize, thanks to this spark, a Great Project on earth, that of representing him, acting individually and with the community, and through which he realizes himself in all freedom, in order to be worthy of contemplating his Creator one day, we hope that all men of good will will wake up, join hands everywhere, fight and finally overcome the cynicism of the unconscious and the bandits and rekindle the flame of hope, justice and peace.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The codification and progressive development of the rules applicable to international law are means of consolidating the legal order in international relations and serving the purposes of the United Nations; to avoid catastrophe for humanity. Theoretically, they could be used to establish the instruments necessary to remedy the violations of States in the maintenance of international peace and security. The decisions taken by the Security Council seem to persist in an increased inefficiency as a result of or in the face of the divergent political orientations of certain members with a special status and a separate right. This unjustified status quo jeopardizes the UN's hope for the members, continues to distort the action of the main body and leads, in practice, to a growing rejection of its legitimacy.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 68 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -In order to complete our training and improve our knowledge acquired at university level with the industrial reality of production units, an internship and an end-of-study dissertation to affirm our knowledge and acquire an industry mindset. This work includes a general study of the vertical axis centrifugal pump including the maintenance of this pump which is manufactured to convey fluids in the production and economic enterprises. To remedy this problem, we must start from the following definition of maintenance 'maintenance is production at optimal cost), we have tried to propose a maintenance plan (corrective and preventive). In order to improve the maintenance of the shipping pump, condition-based preventive maintenance is planned, using the pump analysis technique. The choice of this maintenance is justified by the vital role of the pump. This end-of-study internship allowed us to apply our theoretical knowledge acquired during our university course. In the end, we hope to be up to the task assigned to us.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Blood safety remains a major problem because the need for blood is greater than the supply. Several cases of anaemia are frequent. To overcome this difficulty, regular awareness-raising and encouragement of volunteer donors are developed in Saint François, although the area is very poor financially. Preventive measures are essential to fight against intestinal worms which are very contagious: wash your hands before and after meals, go to the toilet, cut your nails, wash your clothes and sheets regularly, treat your pets regularly with deworming products, only drink water declared as drinkable, do not swim in fresh water, do not walk barefoot, even on the beach, and walk on wet ground with closed shoes. The Saint François hospital has put in place several strategies to fight against parasitosis: health education, mass deworming campaign to contribute to the improvement of the health of this community of Tshimbulu.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Today, there are a number of often contradictory definitions of the geo-economy that deviate far from the original formulation. On this basis, the book examines the dynamics of the original concept of geoeconomics. The author's theoretical construct is used to examine the geo-economic issues of the South Caucasus countries. Each country aims to attain the common goals of civilization but pursues them in its own way. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the countries of the South Caucasus (the so-called republics, essentially colonies of the Soviet empire) had to manage the transition from a centralised to a market economy. This transition was fraught with enormous difficulties. Often the economic processes developed spontaneously and usually by trial and error. Against this background of the current geopolitical situation, the book analyses the specifics of the geo-economic development of the post-Soviet Caucasus. Using Georgia as an example, the author tries to determine whether the existing system of foreign economic relations in the region is capable of responding to the process of implementation of negative geopolitical projects and what chances the region has of becoming a full-fledged player in the geoeconomic space.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 56 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Epilepsy is one of the most common diseases of the nervous system in developing countries. Of the approximately 50 million people in the world suffering from epilepsy, it is estimated that about 80% live in developing countries, particularly in Africa. There are many etiologies and etiological factors, which may be primary or secondary. In developing countries, secondary causes predominate and arise from various sources: infectious diseases with cerebral complications, pre-, per- and post-natal obstetrical complications, cranial trauma, encephalic tumour processes and neurovascular pathology. These findings make epilepsy a real public health problem in Africa.Epilepsy, in addition to its serious medical and social consequences, also has a cost. There is very little data on the cost of epilepsy care in developing countries. A good knowledge of the direct and indirect costs of epilepsy would allow the real needs to be quantified for a good planning of public health actions aimed at improving the management of this condition.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 72 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -The present research work started from thoughts and reflections on how the concept of law was constituted, and what are the current consequences of this idea, in particular the right to play and to play, a more than obvious situation, they said to me. A more than obvious situation, they told me, how to doubt or question the rights and guarantees of the same It is for this reason, because of the obviousness, that the research work was directed along this path, along the path of the obvious, since what we believe to be so obvious is not so obvious.This book is organized in four chapters. They are not only historical but also genealogical, problematizing the epistemological positions that in law and the right to play and to play have been linked. Consequently, the discourses on these hegemonic positions enter as absolute truths in historical, social and political practices.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -A phonological commentary of texts is an evaluative study of the components corresponding to the form of expression. Both in phonematics, in which phonemes and typographic uses are examined, and in prosodematics, in which suprasegmental units, stress, intonation, phonic groups and pauses are scrutinized, specific and particular uses that distinguish the writing of any author, and that make up his or her personal style, stand out. Thus, a phoneme that is not part of the system, an irregular spelling, a displaced accent, a very long phonic group, a special intonation. are instruments and resources that can provide information about the identity, the writing and the way of thinking of a writer. In this book we offer a practical model of phonological commentary that we apply to a series of texts corresponding to six recurring themes in the novels of the Argentine writer Ernesto Sábato: El túnel (1948); Sobre héroes y tumbas (1961); Abaddón el exterminador (1973). These themes (the underground world, blindness, dream, incommunication, the mask, hope) largely reflect the worldview of our author.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Emotional intelligence becomes more meaningful in the educational environment as it assumes an important social condition for the integral development of students. For this reason, the objective of this study was to establish the relationship between emotional intelligence and classroom social climate in elementary school students from rural schools in the commune of Ñiquén. This research was developed with 84 children, aged between 12 and 14 years old, from three rural schools belonging to the Ñuble region in Chile. The conclusion is that both emotional intelligence and classroom climate reached low scores in this population and that, although the correlations do not occur in a generalized manner, there is a relationship between both constructs. These results suggest the need to develop actions to optimize the personal and social variables of students in the classroom.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -According to a report on education by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), 15-year-old students in several Latin American countries lag far behind those in other parts of the world in reading, mathematics and science.Among the Latin American countries included in the analysis, Peru is the one with the most alarming results. Eighty percent of the Peruvian students who participated in the surveys failed the reading test, failing to complete the most basic exercises of the exam. In the same situation were 40% of Mexicans and Argentines; 33% of Brazilians and 28% of Chileans. In Ecuador, reading has traditionally only been a mere description of graphic signs, reading for the sake of reading, and not with its true meaning, which deserves analysis and critical orientation in order to understand what is being read.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 92 pp. Englisch.
